I need some opinions or recomendations. I am looking for a NAS that I can put all my music, video and pictures on it. I will like for it to have a media server in it so i can stream from it. Right now after doing lots of research this is the one that works best for my needs.

Read reviews on Smallnetbuilder.com for more in depth reviews.

Link is incomplete. Hopefully we do have members that own this. Ive been looking for NAS storage with RAID0 or RAID1 redundancy aswell.
As above, i suggest reading in-depth reviews from other websites first. -

I use business class NAS's Snap's servers, listed in signature. These do not have the applications to host, but do work for storage. Normally I just change the pointer as to where the files are and have the application on the desktop. Smallnetbuilder has played with build your own NAS using linux and MS OS's as well as most all others on the market. None of these allowed him to get gige speeds. This is one reason I use SMB class hardware. As for streaming video you need to read the reviews, you would be surprised as to the results. For music yes it can be done, HD video NO with the ones he tested.
